Fodor's Review:
A real feather in Bellevue's cap, this museum presents sophisticated exhibits on craft and design, with a focus on regional artists. Past exhibitions have included glass art from the Pilchuck Glass School Gallery, mixed media from Thomas Mann made from objects and debris found in New Orleans post-Katrina, and a collection of contemporary tapestries. There is no permanent collection. The dramatic puzzle piece-looking building, which really stands out in Bellevue's somewhat uninspired core, is worth the trip alone. In late July, the museum hosts the Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair, which involves more than 300 local artists and craftspeople.
